Vientiane Throne of Civilization

Chapter 1810 The Strange Mechanism

This was definitely the toughest battle the Great Zhou army had fought in recent years. They had just fought the Undead army for several days and nights. Although they had just had a good night's sleep, given the extent of their mental and physical fatigue, it was impossible for them to recover just by sleeping.
Now, facing this black monster that can forcibly rip the soul from the body through a shrieking attack, each of them is experiencing a fate worse than death.

In the end, it was only the belief in his heart that kept him going!

"For the Emperor!"

"For the Emperor!!!"

The soldiers shouted slogans to boost their morale, and one by one they gritted their teeth and got up from the ground to carry out their mission.

During this period, the Elf race, being born extraordinary beings, and the Warrior race, being of demigod blood, were clearly in better condition.

They were the first to recover, and one by one they immediately picked up the oil drums and began to carry out their mission.

Even Jarvitt herself didn't sit idle; she immediately mounted Flying Snow and joined in throwing the oil barrels.

At the same time, the black monster, which was enduring Zhou Xu's double attack, obviously realized that it was being beaten. At that moment, countless black hands rushed out from its huge body, which seemed to be made of black mud, and grabbed at the giant fire serpent that was spewing flames!
Judging from its posture, the monster seemed to intend to use its large black hands to choke the giant fire serpent's throat, thus cutting off its breath.

The giant fire serpent was created by Zhou Xu using his magic power and was not a living creature. Therefore, it was impossible for such an attack method to actually cut off the giant fire serpent's breath.

However, being attacked will still cause a loss of his magical power.

Knowing this, Zhou Xu immediately controlled the giant fire serpent to evade.

The giant fire serpent was incredibly agile and swift, but it couldn't withstand the monster's numerous hands. Faced with the relentless grasping of those black hands, it ultimately succumbed to the monster's clutches.

With the flames relentlessly breathing, Zhou Xu controlled the giant fire serpent, directly engaging in combat with the countless black hands.

The horrifying scene startled Yarvit and the others who entered later.

But there was no time to think, and they hurriedly threw the oil barrels one after another at the black monster.

High-concentration kerosene will ignite rapidly upon contact with even a tiny spark, and it cannot be extinguished in a short time.

Under this premise, the monster's body was still composed of a substance similar to black mud, and the entire body exhibited a slow-flowing state due to this substance.

This characteristic, when combined with high concentrations of kerosene, actually promotes the spread of the kerosene and intensifies the fire!
Due to the entanglement of countless unseen forces, the giant fire serpent's offensive was somewhat affected, while Zhou Xu's energy expenditure increased.

But thanks to the large number of oil barrels thrown down, the fire grew stronger and stronger, and from a distance, the black monster looked like a volcano burning fiercely!

A raging inferno engulfed the entire body, indiscriminately scorching the black monster.

The face covering his entire body twisted and contorted in the flames, and his shrieking attacks were indeed interrupted by the fire, allowing more and more Great Zhou soldiers to recover from their previous bad state and join the battle.

No problem! This will work!!

Seeing this, Zhou Xu was also delighted.

The black monster before them was quite different from the dark red monsters they had encountered before, or even the earlier corpse demons. While this monster was a massive aggregate of energy, it was more like a weapon of mass destruction.

If there are no suitable means to stop its shrieking attacks in time.

Let alone an entire army, even an entire city, or even the entire population of a country, would probably have their souls gradually stripped away and then be completely devoured by it!
During this process, we cannot rule out the possibility that the opponent will become stronger and stronger after devouring a large number of souls and lands, and it is highly likely that such a situation will occur.

When facing monsters with special mechanics, if you don't find the right method, you're just wasting your time.

Fortunately, Zhou Xu had dealt with many different kinds of monsters and had developed his own set of experiences. His quick reaction and accurate judgment in this situation led to the current outcome.

Next, Zhou Xu only needed to maintain his spellcasting state.

At the same time, the Great Zhou troops also did not need to retreat and all joined the battle.

Some monsters are troublesome when there are many of them, while others are easier to defeat when there are many of them. Different methods should be used for different monsters, and you should not fall into habitual thinking.

The current situation clearly falls into the latter category.

Li Ce clearly understood that life or death depended on this, so he ordered his soldiers to empty all the supplies in the camp. When the oil drums were gone, they threw in explosives; when the explosives were gone, they threw in grenades; when the grenades were gone, they opened fire. In short, they just had to do it!
During this time, the giant fire serpent controlled by Zhou Xu had such a strong presence that it attracted most of the black monster's attacks, putting all the pressure on Zhou Xu, while the soldiers just kept firing.

The battle was fierce and intense. After the black monster was unable to unleash its shrieking attack, its combat power was greatly reduced. The monster, which continued to endure the attacks, even began to shrink its enormous body.

This scene, witnessed by Zhou Xu and the other soldiers of the Great Zhou, invigorated them. As if given a shot of adrenaline, their fatigue vanished in an instant.

[Very good. As long as this momentum continues, it's only a matter of time before we completely crush them.]

With this in mind, Zhou Xu instructed Yarvit to conserve her strength and refrain from making a move.

She still has one more strike left. Once the monster is weakened to a certain extent, she can simply let Yarvit deliver a fatal blow.

At this moment, Zhou Xu's thoughts were also very clear.

Unexpectedly, at that moment, something went wrong. The black mud covering the black monster's entire body seemed to have been burned away by the continuous flames.

At that moment, a large-scale cracking and peeling occurred, and the next second, a huge black skull crawled out directly from the cracked and peeling black mud!

Even Zhou Xu was stunned by the sight.

Good grief! This monster even has a second phase?!

Almost as soon as the thought flashed through his mind, the black skull roared and slammed its huge skeletal hand into the ground, instantly cracking the earth in front of it!

In this form, fire attacks seemed to have no effect on it. The massive skeletal body stood up directly from the sea of ​​fire, and with a stride, it displayed a speed it had never shown before, charging towards the giant fire serpent.
